So glad he was willing to sell it back! He's a true car guy and understands what the Bronco meant to you. I look forward to seeing this "Rust Bucket" 😁 back up and running one day.

It was on marketplace. I seen it for sale.
I got a 66 that was 98% restored. The only Ford I wish I still had. Loved that and wish I still had it. Couldn’t imagine what it would be worth now. Those broncos would go anywhere. Can’t wait to see what you do with it
Hi..... Josh, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐣🐥🐕🐈🐐🐄🐝🌱🏡🎥👍👍👍

Great old Bronco! Can't wait to see this project.
With the parts available now you can get all the parts and put a new body together on it buy a complete new body or try and cut out what rust you have, Great that you got it back and doing it for Dad.
just wanted to say thanks for all your videos !!! As a veteran myself, it's nice to see people who support OUR TROOPS. Hoo Rah Semper Fi

Sorry I’m late commenting. I normally don’t watch your videos but the bronco caught my eye. The top is a Kelly top made by the Kelly Mfg Co. in Springfield, OH in case you didn’t find out.
Josh you are the bomb
Man. Josh happy for your find. My dad had one in the early 1960. Great show don’t forget the jeep. Old Marine like to see it fixed. Thanks again from my hill top in. Sc

Man I like your style. 👍🏻 Congratulations on the Bronx
I am so so happy the bronco is back. I understand you had to do what you had to do but man I was so sad when I found out you sold it. These things hold a special place in my heart ♥️ #TheBroncosBackBaby Woooooooo
Man I love this bronco I asked you about it the other day and you told me it's benn gone for 2 years and now it's back
This is Cool, first video of yours I ever watched was you getting that old willys out of your dads barn.
So glad you got the Bronco back in the family, I had a 1966 back in the early 80's. had so much fun in that old truck.
Those things are going for a ridiculous amount of money in any shape, I’m happy to hear you got your dads 👏
other than sentamental value , anything over than $8,000 is a hard thing to swallow in that shape . good luck . great vid
glad that you were able to get some of your family history back. have a great day.
Getting favorite lost or missed cars & trucks back, the best. Best David
Should turn out to be a really nice project . Can't wait to see how it turns out.
Awesome Josh glad you got it back that was nice of him to sell it back to you really appreciate your videos buddy 👍
Glad you got that back!!
It's definitely worth every penny to restore it might take 40 grand but to get your dad's bronco back makes it all worthwhile
I had a 1973 & a 74 Bronco years ago. I miss both of those ol' girls... Good luck on the restoration, looks alot more solid than one would expect for the age.
I had a 68 with a 289 too. last year for vacuums wipers and fold down windshield I think hahaha
Awesome! Thanks for sharing this:)
Wow, that is awesome. I had a 68 as well and my kids drove it because insurance was cheap, all girls. Sure would love to have mine back. Looking forward to the journey of restoration! Love your channel
It's so cool that you got your Dad's bronco back can't wait to see it after you get it restored
A friend's father worked at Ford. I think it was in 1965 that he brought a pre-production Bronco home for the weekend. It was a fun weekend...
Woohoo glad you found your dad's bronco and was able to get it back
This is like Gas Monkey Garage! Put the plaid black and red checked seats in it! haha
It's beautiful, and I can't wait for the refurb!!
Glad you got it back👍
I know some folks will scream, but I've had really good luck spraying down bare metal with silicone spray. Just make sure you wipe everything down with alcohol it remove it before any paint... Have fun, gonna be a bunch of work, but family legacy's can't be replaced... Thanx !
When I turned 16 in the late 1970s, i wanted one of these first generation Broncos so bad. My dad, brother, and me looked at many of those Bronco’s. They were only 5-8 year old used trucks at the time. Ultimately, got a Jeep CJ-5 instead…. but those Broncos were so cool. Glad you got your dad’s Bronco back. Hold on to this family heirloom. How can you not be a Ford guy… you own first generation Bronco and a Raptor? Two very cool Fords 😜😜.
Good to get it back! Woooooo
A friend back home found his dad’s Bronco, that he learned to drive in, but his dad sold just before he got his license in 1974. Bought it, restored it, and has won a bunch of shows. I’ll email Josh a photo if he’d like to show.
Look's like maybe an IH scout roof.
That's a cool vehicle. Can't wait to see more videos about it. Keep up the great work Josh.
Looking forward to watching the progress on the bronco
I have some new door skins, a front quarter panel and a winch bumper left over from my Bronco build if you're interested in buying them. Still in the boxes they came in, nothing wrong with them, just didn't end up using them.

I love the Broncos but I found and bought four International Harvester Scout 80s that I hope to do a series of videos on the restoration of two. Great videos, man, love it.
Looking forward to more Bronco videos
Good job 👍
Hey Josh thank you for the video and yeah that bronco needs a lot of work that's for sure but I know it means a lot to you and your family I just wonder if it was that bad with all the rust before you sold to that guy
I remember looking at one back in the mid 80's that had so much rust in it that someone had literally fiberglassed the doors back onto the hinges. They were as bad as a Jeep to rust.
These are going for big money restored
Glen Villeneuve, from Life below zero fame, has a custom converted van that he got from a place in NC. Maybe that van you seen came from the same place.
Great video Josh cool bronco
Great content as always.Looking forward to seeing more of car content.
never seen a top like that, had a hard top on mine and sold to guy to pay for a soft top. check out jeffs bronco graveyard, toms bronco parts, James duff, so many of them but those are the supply guys I used back in the day for mine
Yes it's worth it. If you don't think so, I'll take it!!!

Dang, I just watched your erosion video from 2019.....things are looking up for you. You've lost about 50 pounds, got a $150K shop and a hell of a lot better equipment than from a few years ago. Would you mind going back to that ditch you put the sausages (waddles) in so we can see how they have faired. I've got a heck of an erosion problem at the moment.

Best way to move forward is to remove all of the parts from the body and send it to be dipped to reveal all of it's structural problems. Then buy all re-manufactured body parts and have a professional weld it back together. Too complicated for a non-professional to get it done correctly.

I'm surprised that you didn't just take your trailer and one of your trucks over there and get it and save that tow fee. Broncos are so light you and the guy cound push it to turn it back the trailer down the drive. Come along up into the trailer and use the savings on epoxy sealer.
